Balloons are mostly made of a natural latex tapped from rubber trees, and can be filled with air, helium, water, or any other suitable liquid or gas. The rubber's elasticity makes the volume adjustable.

Filling the balloon with air can be done with the mouth, a manual or electric inflater (such as a hand pump), or with a source of compressed gas.

When latex/rubber balloons are filled with helium so that they float, they typically retain their buoyancy for only a day or so (approximately 15-20 hours). The enclosed helium atoms escape through small pores in the latex which are larger than the helium atoms. Balloons filled with air usually hold their size and shape much longer, sometimes for up to a week.

The inside of balloons can be treated with a special gel (for instance, the polymer solution sold under the "Hi Float" brand) which coats the inside of the balloon to reduce the helium leakage, thus increasing float time to a week or longer.

Balloon Gas Tank with high quality helium to inflate your required number of balloons & tank regulator.The recommended number of balloons obtained from any gas cylinder is based on using good quality balloons inflated to 25cm in diameter. If the balloons are larger than this you will reduce the number of balloons obtained from each cylinder. You will also reduce the amount of balloons obtained by leaking helium, bursting balloons or not using the regulator correctly. We only recommend using biodegradable environmentally friendly balloons.
